In nature there exist so many strange creatures that humans are "hard to imagine". Here are 10 such animals.
The toothed shark is considered one of the prehistoric sharks.It is called "living fossil" because of its peculiar, stunted characteristics in evolution.It is unclear how this species links to other ancient sharks.
Aye-aye is a small lemur that lives in Madagascar.This breed possesses large onion-shaped eyes, large ears and terrifying long fingers.It is worth mentioning that this species has no significant evolution in form.
The so-called Dumbo octopus is due to the fact that it surrounds its human body, which resembles the flying elephant's ears in Disney cartoons.This species resides in deep water (about 4km below sea level).
Blobfish are quite rare fish, living in deep water off Australia and Tasmania.This fish does not have a bubble-1 tool to float like most other fish.It emerges because it is thicker, less dense than seawater, allowing it to swim more easily on the bottom of the sea for food.
Giant coconut crabs have even larger ones that can reach nearly 1m.Only when young, this species used to protect the body.When it grows, the crab tomorrow gets smaller.They are residents of islands located on the east coast of Africa and Southeast Asia and the South Pacific.

Moloch Horridus is a reptile animal in Australia.It also has another name, thorny lizard, thorny dragon or Moloch lizard.They have thorny bodies and a "false head" to distract predators.Thanks to their sand-like bodies, they can camouflage in the desert easily.
Indian purplefrog or pig nose frog is a purple frog with a strange shape.Indians discovered them in the Ghats mountain range in late 2013. According to scientists, they appeared on Earth millions of years ago.However, they burrow underground, rarely appear, so humans do not know their existence for a very long time.Until now their behavior is still very mysterious.
Manatee live on the bottom of the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Ocean.They often hunt from sediment beneath the sea.
